DNA Collection Tips and Techniques
Our in-home DNA collection method is simple and harmless for your dog. Follow these steps for an easy, successful collection.
You will be collecting your sample with a sterile polyester tipped cotton swab. Your goal is to collect enough cheek cells from the dog that the lab can extract a quality sample of DNA.
First, and most importantly to remember; you are collecting cheek cells from your dog. These cheek cells are what the lab will use to extract DNA.
To collect a good sample, do not allow your dog to have any food or to play with any shared toys or water bowls for at least one hour prior to collecting a sample. If you have multiple pets in the house, it is best to keep them separated for an hour. This helps to ensure no cross-contamination of the sample.
The best place to sample is from the side of the dog’s mouth, between the cheek and the gum.
With the swab placed on the inside surface of the cheek, apply slight pressure with your thumb on the outside of the dog’s cheek and gently swirl the swab around for about 10 seconds.
If your dog is a bit restless and you can’t get a good sample at first, that&

Scoop! DNA database to tackle dog poo pests
THE FIGHT against dog fouling in public places is about to go high tech if Shetland Islands Council has its way.
Forensic analysis techniques that are used in criminal investigations are now being used to profile DNA in dog dirt to catch people who refuse to pick up after their pets.
The SIC is joining other local authorities across the UK who want to adopt the US PooPrints system that can identify any pooch from its poop.
The Tennessee-based company say their scheme has already been taken up in 45 US states, as well as Germany, France, Canada, Singapore and Israel. In Berlin and Jerusalem they claim it has cut down dog mess on the streets by 90 per cent.
PooPrints boasts almost total success on private housing complexes where it has been introduced in the States, saying its unique ability to match dog to dirt has acted as a highly effective deterrent.
The system works by taking a swab from the dog’s mouth that provides it with a DNA profile, which is stored on the DNA World Pet Registry.
A “Matching the Mess” service can then be used to identify any dog from a sample of its waste on the street.
